Chapter 548 Kidnap

“Yeah! Where’s Sophia?” Clayton looked around the vicinity to search for Sophia, but there was no sight of her anywhere.

“Where did she go?” Franklin asked, panic in his voice, “Could an accident have happened to her?”

“We can’t be twiddling our thumbs here like idiots. The temperature will drop even further when night falls.” Xavian said gravely, “Sophia might not survive the night with only a ski suit and without food.”

The boys immediately reported her disappearance to their teacher.

The teacher was stunned to hear Sophia from the Bowers family was missing. Feeling nervous, the teacher instantly contacted the ski resort worker and launched a search and rescue.
